The objcg is not cleared and put for kfence object when it is freed, which could lead to memory leak for struct obj_cgroup and wrong statistics of NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B or NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B. Since the last freed object's objcg is not cleared, mem_cgroup_from_obj() could return the wrong memcg when this kfence object, which is not charged to any objcgs, is reallocated to other users. A real word issue [1] is caused by this bug.
